Industrial Training for Engineering Students at Curtin University Sarawak

Industrial Training refers to students’ work experience in an engineering-practice environment to familiarize themselves with

School of Engineering & Science at Curtin University Sarawak

professional engineering practices prior to graduation. The Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) and Engineers Australia, which are the organizations that accredited all engineering programmes in Malaysia and Australia, strongly advocate that at least 12 weeks of continuous industrial training is included in all undergraduate engineering programmes.

In Curtin University Sarawak Malaysia, all engineering students MUST complete at least 12 weeks of Industrial Training as one of the requirements to be awarded a Bachelor of Engineering.

It is a mechanism to integrate engineering practices in the curriculum to achieve the overall Programme Outcomes and Curtin Graduates Attributes. Student shall undergo the Industrial Training during the semester break after he/ she has completed Year 3 or obtained at least 500 credit points.

Students should note that Industrial Training is an essential component in the engineering curriculum. It provides exposure to engineering processes at a practical level; helps developing professional skills required by an engineer and offers opportunity to prospective employment. Many employers regard this period as a chance to assess potential employees for future employment.

All engineering students should make considerable effort and give sufficient thought into obtaining the most effective training for themselves. Whilst challenging, it is desirable to obtain training that covers a range of activities, such as design, laboratory and on-site field works.

At Curtin University Sarawak Malaysia, Industrial Training is facilitated by the Dean of School with the consultation of the Industrial and External Relations Committee, and is managed by the respective Advisor for each engineering programme.
